Thanks for the info abutler.
Just to confirm, do you get 7 consecutive days off every month or is that a lie?
I was planning on commuting, know its gonna be tough but I've done it before. Not from China though. Also I was told that you could allocate a couple of days from your annual leave with your 7 days, "roster permitting". Does that ever happen?
Which agencies are Shanghai Airlines using by the way?
Cheers and thanks for the info
